ArgoCD Custom Resource Definition too long
When CRD's get too lengthy, we need to use server side apply
Mon, 18 Mar 2024
Without getting too technical, these docs explain why we need to use server side apply on certain actions and the differences between a client side(regular) apply. Heres how we would use it with ArgoCD. This example deploys a redis operator instance
